However, those of us who partake of the wifi need to make sure we are being good customers as well.Shane Vander Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17148737191721551327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-37948185877255087352009-08-18T06:45:06.692-05:002009-08-18T06:45:06.692-05:00Maybe it's not the wifi use but rather the fac...Maybe it's not the wifi use but rather the fact that they can't accomodate more customers who actually want to drink their coffee that's troubling the owners.Rygelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12929204861130334663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-83894441628086776342009-08-18T05:31:45.543-05:002009-08-18T05:31:45.543-05:00I, too, have never seen an "eat and git"...I, too, have never seen an "eat and git" sign in any of the WiFi shops. I have seen people who look like they have been in the shop a long time when I arrive and remain when I leave and they ate or drank nothing while I was there.<br /><br />I don't think the customer has the right to remain in the shop beyond a reasonalble period of time for consuming their food/drink in a leisurely fashion. Each of us knows when we have reached that limit but some of us need a sign to remind us to be fair.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11832376808513132553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-68699144317912206542009-08-17T22:25:35.164-05:002009-08-17T22:25:35.164-05:00Starbucks doesn't seem to mind around here.

You can, however, get a Starbucks gift card, register is with ATT&T wireless and as long as you fill it up each month (any dollar amount) you can use their WiFi.<br /><br />I don't think it will be too long before free WiFi becomes the norm... and places that act like it's the end of the world if you sit at one of their tables for a couple of hours won't keep that policy for long if they know what's good for business!stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760765831975016535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-27853977321590380742009-08-17T18:37:37.099-05:002009-08-17T18:37:37.099-05:00Wow, that is biting the hand that feeds you.

I've never seen one of those signs.Bar L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11100008292699584336noreply@blogger.com
